Li Hongjie's mood became more complicated and tangled. She knew very well that she couldn't live without Tang Lin now, but she knew even better that she couldn't get too close to Tang Lin now.
She knew what Tang Lin was thinking, but the better Tang Lin treated her, the greater the pressure on her. It wasn't that she didn't want Tang Lin to treat her well, but that under the current circumstances, Tang Lin comforted her and cared about her regardless of rumors and his own future.
, she felt inferior and felt that she was committing a crime.
In today's society, which man in the officialdom doesn't want to climb up the ladder, and doesn't want to be promoted and rich?
"I have been thinking about these things for a long time. You don't have to worry about me anymore. Think about yourself. Others think that you are young and mature, and you are calm and mature in everything you do. But you, in fact, still have the temper of the army.
It's just that you don't like to talk, but in the officialdom it's not enough for you to have the straight-faced temper of the army. You have to learn to be hypocritical, to act, and to deceive others. You can't do it now. I just went downstairs and saw someone treating you.
A public warning and punishment is posted on the display board on the first floor. Anyone with a discerning eye will know at a glance that the main reason for this matter is not you at all, but the female mayor must only punish you..."
"You have to be careful about this kind of thing in the future. This time it's a small matter. It's just a computer exceeding the standard, and you took the initiative to write the inspection yourself. But what if it were something else? There are all kinds of rumors about you and the female mayor.
It hasn't stopped yet, and now there are more rumors about you and Huang Doudou. It's because you went out with the old man this time. Some people don't dare to touch you easily anymore, but they just don't dare to touch you for the time being. If you continue to be treated like this
Keep grabbing for excuses. Do you know that what the Huang family hates most is people who are greedy for pleasure and have no job... And today, you can just say hello to me when you meet me. It doesn't mean you are deliberately alienating me. You have to go all the way.
Chase them out, I'm afraid there will be new rumors now, saying that you are a man of three people, saying that as long as you are a powerful, rich and powerful woman, you will run after you..."
It was not easy for Li Hongjie to say such words at this time. At least Tang Lin's kindness to her was not in vain. What she was thinking about now was not herself at all, but Tang Lin.
Tang Lin was about to speak but Li Hongjie raised her hand to stop him, "Shh, listen to me, it's actually me who can't let go. In fact, whether it's revenge or restoring that person's reputation, it doesn't necessarily have to be in the city hall. Over the years, I
My parents have been telling me that if I ask them to help, I would rather go bankrupt than bring down the person named Zhou. But I can't hurt them anymore. I really can't. I have already brought them too much pain. My whole family
People are happy as a family, and they can be peaceful and happy every day whether they have money or not, but they have suffered too much because of me, and they have to worry about my safety all the time..."
"So I made an agreement with them from the first day I entered the city government. I will take responsibility for that person's affairs alone. If they get involved, I will die immediately for them. Alas... Tang Lin... I only thought at that time that I
One person is sad, another person is in pain, and they don't consider their feelings at all. How can it not matter? In Zhongzhou City, which originally held half of the market share of the real estate business, my father... had no choice but to withdraw from them all within a year. Although it was a blessing in disguise later,
He has been very successful in investing in high-end villa areas in Guinan, but I still feel very uncomfortable..."
Fortunately, there were not many customers at the moment, and they sat in the corner inside so as not to be noticed. Except for the occasional waiter who passed by, there was no one there, otherwise the walls would have been there. It is not far from the city hall, and people from the city government often come here to eat pizza.
.
Tang Lin had already secretly observed the situation, so he felt relieved and allowed Li Hongjie to continue speaking. He did not expect that his accidental act today would allow Li Hongjie to say these words that had been held in his heart for many years.
He never persuades people, but he is an excellent listener. He has a master's degree in psychology. He knows that people's emotions and savings must be vented or poured out after a certain period of time, otherwise the person's spirit will enter a sub-healthy state.
He even changed his temperament and finally drove himself crazy.
When he came to the city hall, Li Hongjie had already gone from a drastic change of temperament to a crazy development. Originally, she would collapse if she could not hold on for long, but when Tang Lin came, everything changed.
But everything is dialectical. Tang Lin saved Li Hongjie on the verge of collapse, including the one-night passion. In fact, it was the best outlet for Li Hongjie, a safe and effective outlet. She began to change, began to intervene, and
Her true face was revealed and she began to gradually accept the reality, but another cruel reality was that she had developed a serious psychological dependence on Tang Lin, and this psychological dependence would not be changed or replaced by anyone even for a long time to come.
.
So Tang Lin did not leave that night and did not ask for her hot body again. He carefully protected the poor infatuated woman in front of him in a small space with great difficulty.
Li Hongjie didn't shed tears. She spoke calmly. She really began to accept the facts in her heart, "So Tang Lin, I... I have ruined many people. I can't ruin you anymore. I... I won't come tomorrow."
Go to work, you have to take care of yourself in the future... I know you are busy... Don't come here to see me... I'm really fine. I will be a 30-year-old woman in the Chinese New Year. Haha, what's so scary about a 30-year-old widow?
What's more, I have money, I can go wherever I want, Europe, I don't like Europe, I want to go to New Zealand..."
Li Hongjie lowered her head and stirred the coffee in front of her with a small spoon while making the most difficult decision, a decision that surprised Tang Lin. However, Tang Lin was not surprised at all on his face. Instead, he smiled and raised his hand to hold Li Hongjie down.
My right hand is constantly stirring due to tension, conflict and excitement.
"Haha, Li Hongjie, have you lived for yourself for even one minute in your life?"
Tang Lin suddenly asked a question that seemed strange. Li Hongjie raised her head in confusion, "What?" Tang Lin repeated the question seriously.
Li Hongjie's eyes suddenly dimmed, as if she was thinking desperately, as if she was completely confused about herself for a moment. Yes, she is 30 years old, but when does she live for herself?
"People...can't always live for themselves...wouldn't that be too selfish?" Li Hongjie's voice was like a rootless cloud floating in the sky forever.
Empty, contradictory and powerless.
Tang Lin's big hand still tightly covered Li Hongjie's right hand. The strange thing was that her hand was not cold, unlike the female mayor who often felt cold. Her hand was warm, but full of sweat.
"People can't be so selfish, but they have to live for themselves at least half the time, right? In fact, you don't want to immigrate at all. You are only thinking about revenge, and you are even ready for the most extreme solution. Can I ask what this is?
?”
Tang Lin said as he took out a white medicine bag from his pocket. Li Hongjie immediately panicked when she saw it and subconsciously raised her hand to grab it, but Tang Lin immediately put it back again.
"Live for yourself for one year, just one year, okay? It's like making a bet with me. If you still feel that your life is just revenge, then you can use whatever means you want, and then commit suicide by taking poison. I will never
I don’t care, okay?”
Li Hongjie burst into tears again, but there were only tears without crying. Such crying was more painful and heartbreaking. But Tang Lin just sat quietly, watching her cry quietly, without even a handkerchief.
Pass it over.
What's even more outrageous is that he immediately got up and left without saying goodbye to the heartbroken woman.
